Hi. I was just wondering is it possible to install huawei watch 2 rom on 4g version. I assume that It would loose 4g conectivity but is it even possible without bricking the watch?
Thank You
I have the same situation as you, no 4g Internet connection after updated to Oreo, try all the roms here in the forum but still no 4g Internet connection, if you try to flash the Bluetooth version of Huawei watch2 roms, you will lost the sim card function, of course you can try it but remember DO NOT flash the BOOTLOADER coz it will brick your watch!!
Also , I tried to flash back to watch 2 4g Nougat 7.1.1 but when I try to flash the bootloader , the device not allow to downgrade the BOOTLOADER to 7.1.1, but you can still flash the rest imgs ( boot, system, userdata, recovery) to get back to Nougat, but after flashing back the 4g Internet connection still not working.
If someone have any solutions, please share and let us know:crying:
Thanks

In the twrp thread I posted the 4g Oreo firmware. I don't know if it will fix your problem, maybe flash OEM and aboot? Note aboot is the bootloader, so only as last resort!!!

It depends really... Try just boot, OEM, recovery, system. Then try wipe data. Then try all again. Only now can you try aboot. NEVER EVER flash abootbak, it is a backup!!!

Basically, don't flash aboot!!!

Edit: flashing successful but still no 4g data connection, everything remain the same as before , so weird
Bluetooth wifi no problem , calling no problem...
Wanna try to flash aboot but don't know what is the path located...
dd if=" don't really know the location to flash it"
Or I can use the same command fastboot flash aboot to flash it

Yes use Fastboot only. If it fails though there is no fixing it so I am not responsible for your actions. Only flash with a reliable usb

Thanks , btw just wondering what is the extension of the aboot, img or bin? I think I will not flash it, and just bring it to the Huawei repair center.

It's an elf afaik, but maybe a bin...
Btw Huawei will charge you - if the bootloader is unlocked you have no warranty.
Finally fixed it by sent it back to Huawei service centre:good: thanks

I have to go to uni in 1 hour and updated my bootloader via flashify, now its stuck in bootloader and wont boot. TWRP is the only accesible option for me. Tried to reflash the bootloader via fast boot but nothings happening.
Bootloader : hhz11k
Rom : N5X 5.0 AOSP Ver. 5.4
Wipe cache in TWRP and reboot. If that doesn't work, restore your backup. If THAT doesn't work, flash the factory image when you can get to a PC

I'm restoring right now. Doy you know why this happened? Isn't flashify able to flash the bootloader, and if that was the case, shouldn't a flash via fastboot be the solution to my problem?
Anyways thx for your quick answer!
I don't use apps for things I can do manually, I do it all via adb/fastboot
As to why it's happened, not a clue. Also, make sure you're actually using the Nexus 5 images and not from another Nexus device

The problem probably is that Flashify doesn't have the functionality to flash bootloaders. It flashes boot image (kernel) Radio and recovery. I bet you flashed a bootloader image to your kernel partition. Lucky you didn't brick

Sometimes unpacking the wrong image in a partition can screw the partition itself up, which wouldn't matter if he had BL or not. Brick doesn't mean wont power up. Brick just means unrepairable without a service centre.

Glad i said "le'ts google it" before going full wipe, i owe you dude.
I downloaded 5.1 radio and bootloader and flashed them using Flashify, then i got the same problem as OP. Reflashing the kernel fixed it.

Hello,
My honor 8 is hard bricked, I wished to install custom Rom and it was encrypted so I decided to return to EMUI, I installed stock recovery I installed rollback package to emui 4.1 and emui 4.1 now i'm stuck on boot screen.
I can't go to Recovery settings or dload method, I can just go on fastboot and do nothing.
I can go to fastboot mode but I have this message when I try to flash anything... "FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)" FRP is locked
Will Phoenix DC will work for me ? To unlock FRP and flash manually ?
Please help me
You can try to boot a recovery like TWRP in fastboot mode
Type in:
Code:
fastboot boot "recovery.img"
You also can try to format the system partitions. It will maybe unlock FRP, but i don't think that it will work.
Commands:
Code:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase data
fastboot erase cache
Which model of the Honor 8 you have?
DC Unlocker is a nice idea. When nothing works, you have to use it.

Hello,
When you want to flash your ROM, you go to fastboot mode and on Phoenix DC you should select APP file to flash. Which APP file should I flash, Nougat to Marshmallow package on hihonor website or for example B394 update?

I ended up using the rollback to marshmallow package. Once I rebooted, the phone started updating. It took me like 3 or 4 updates to get to the latest version. The important thing is that you get the correct rom for your phone. Make sure everything matches up to the B--. For me it was (FRD-L04C567), If you flash the wrong rom your phone will be stuck on the version you flashed (phone won't update). I hope this helps and I wish you success.

Great!! I was looking for a new phone. Then I decided I would give DC Phoenix a try. Now my bootloader was unlocked and I think I might have gotten away with flashing every partition on my phone, but this way was so much easier and was worth the cost.

If it's a Verizon model, you can't unlock the bootloader. If it's from Google, you should be fine. I've not tried flashing a modem. If you can flash the factory images, just use the flash all script and remove the w. That will flash everything, including the modem, but will not wipe your data.

I can use the script but opening it in notepad ++ , the flash all bat doesn't show anything about modem. I've tried everything from just fastboot flash modem modem.img to
Flash modem slot a, etc. Keeps giving remote error flash modem not allowed . I really think Google just locked this phone down that much more. Ridiculous.
The factory image does flash the modem. It doesn't say so in the bat or sh files, but you'll also notice that it doesn't mention the boot, system, or vendor files either (along with many other things), even though those are most certainly flashed during an update. That's because those are all inside the image zip that is referenced in the last line of the bat or sh (where you remove the -w). It flashes everything inside of that, including the modem.
If a screwed up modem is your problem, flashing the factory image will fix it. If that doesn't fix it, then the modem is not your issue.

I don't know if this will work. I also don't know what the fastboot update command does under the hood. But the flash-all batch file does flash the modem image using the fastboot update command. What if you created a zip file with your modem image in it and then tried to flash it with the update command, or possibly replace the modem.img in the zip in the factory image with your image?

Hello!
I tried the search function but my search-fu isn't strong today. I got a Vortex V22 phone from Standup Wireless. I must have been half asleep, because when i flashed what I assumed was the correct boot.img, I got stuck in a boot loop.
On further investigation, I had flashed the boot for another device called Vortex. I am having incredible difficulty in finding the right boot image. The info I have from the side of the box is:
Vortex V22 4G LTE
Color: Graphite Blue
ROM 32GB
RAM 3GB
OS Android 11
FCC ID 2ADLJ-V22
I deeply appreciate any and all help. Thanks so much!
i was trying to find a phone case for the phone what model number is yours ?
If you're still searching I can try to make a rom dump, I have this phone as well brand new untouched or registered.
I'd just need a tutorial on the proper way to dump and extract the files so I can upload the boot.img

I've never used it cause I put the StandUp Wireless sim in my T-Mo InSeeGo 5G HotSpot and prefer to use my Galaxy S8 with Keyboard Cover Case and Unihertz Titan Pocket

Hi PicelBoi,
I have the V22. I've unlocked the BL and trying to install a custom rom via ADB or Fastboot but have had no luck. I try to erase or flash and I get errors saying partitions don't exist. Can you please help out with a recovery file?
I tried the hovatek guide but didn't have any luck, but I tried it before the BL was unlocked. Would that be an issue with the sp flash tool? I was told it shouldn't matter.

You need to reboot to userland fastboot, which you could do by rebooting to normal fastboot then telling fastboot to reboot to fastboot by typing in fastboot reboot fastboot. You will see a new screen, and now you could flash a GSI to the phone.

Newer ones do work as well I has 13 rooted and working. However, I liked the Pixel ROMs the best and would prefer to install those instead and then root. So I need the firmware for that so I can patch a modified boot.img.

You need to reboot to userland fastboot, which you could do by rebooting to normal fastboot then telling fastboot to reboot to fastboot by typing in fastboot reboot fastboot. You will see a new screen, and now you could flash a GSI to the phone.

Thank you. I understand and have a lot of experience with this. However, I still never understood why there is two Fastboot's.
I can't get it to boot in one I flash the super that I backed up that don't get it to boot maybe I could use a good super. What about vbmeta?

Are you looking for a good GSI ROM?
As of right now I'm just trying to get it booted up with any room. I got it rooted and then something I ****ed up when I tried to flash a GSI. And I started messing with the boot a boot b vbMeta from system and blank. And I don't have the firmware an the super that I backed up won't boot when I flash it.
But yes I am indeed looking for a good running a12 rom

I completely messed up one messing with partitions and it took many tries trying to get to was able to still get to the bootloader fastboot and then recovery to fastbootD. You should be able to get it booted into fastbootd and flash as it seems you can.
Try the one below. you should be able to find it with a google search. If you can't let me know and I will try to look and see where I downloaded it from as I cannot remember where I found it.
I've tried many GSI ROM's Some boot fully, some only boot to the boot screen and some won't boot at all.
I'm using 13 rooted LineageOS GSI version 20-20230324-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bvS
It is vanilla. I can't remember if there is a GAPPS version or not. But you can load it all after with magisk. But its rooted.
I still would like if picelboi could share the stock rom, so we can have a boot.img. I would like to try other ROM's that are not PRE-Rooted.

I can't remember which A12 I had working but I was looking for root and the one A12 that was prerooted I had issues with so I went to A13.
This is an A13. LineageOS GSI version 20-20230324-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bvS
There may be a newer version of it now.
Also, these phones seem have that internet connect issue with some GSI ROMS and this is one of them I think, they connect to wifi but they won't actually connect to internet, but there is a easy fix for it.
